It's Not Just Women Worrying about Breast Size

Posted on 9 August 2012
Women across the UK will hopefully be breathing huge sighs of relief as new reports indicate that it's not just us who worry about the size of our chests. It's easy to feel inadequate when comparing ourselves to magazine models and celebrities, leaving the flat-chested among us wanting more, and those more well-endowed wishing they could deflate them a little. In addition, fashion is not always our friend, with styles often leaving us looking like a sack of potatoes, or at risk of our tops not staying up!

It seems that our male counterparts are increasingly worrying about their upper halves. Moobs (or “male boobs”) are now considered more of a curse than a receding hairline, and this concern's not just confined to the UK. Recent statistics from South African plastic surgeons show that male breast reduction is now one of the top five cosmetic procedures requested by men. Over in the US, there was an 8% increase last year on 2010 figures, with 19,766 males undergoing male breast reduction surgery. Here in the UK, statistics from the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) revealed that "moob reductions" were the second-most requested procedure in 2011, rising by 7% from the previous year.

We often get enquiries for “moob jobs” or “moob reductions” (also known as gynaecomastia), from men of all ages and from all walks of life. It would appear that we're all in the same boat, when it comes to worrying about the appearance of our chests...

Regardless of your gender, if you're considering plastic surgery for your breasts, it's imperative that you choose your cosmetic surgeon very carefully. Whether you're thinking about a breast enlargement, breast reduction, or uplift procedure, Liberate can help advise you on the best route to take. We'll help you find a surgeon who will give you the personal approach and address any questions and concerns you might have prior to forming your decision. Additionally, you can rest assured that all our breast procedures are carried out by registered BAAPS and/or BAPRAS surgeons. There are so-called “cosmetic cowboys” out there, who may not be as experienced or qualified as Liberate surgeons and if you’re going to take the plunge and book a cosmetic surgery procedure, make sure you’re in the safest hands possible.
